People now we have a face and address email for Phil wonder if he can be found!!!

Remember we live in a small world we can run but we can not hide
 
Here's another phone #-- 207/992-4130. I just called it and guess what .... the office is closed until April 28. The voice on the message sounds exactly like the Phil Dougherty that no longer works for Adobe. I don't remember who posted this info earlier ( Phil stated to the AG he no longer works for Adobe). More of Phil's evasiveness and lies. I e-mailed and called six times with absolutely no response from Phil. I can't get him to dispute or deny my claim of the cancer on the skin panels.

Igot word today that Phil doesn't work at Adobe any more. That is what he told my attorney, although he didnot say who to talk to. I don't believe him. Does anyone know different. I never get an answer there. If anyone knows please pos. Thanks.

PHIL IS ADOBE BOILER. He worked for himself by himself. He had people manufacturing for him....
 
Exactly, if Phil is speaking he is lying.
 
Hello, I'm new to to the forum but was had by Phil like the rest of you were. 3 months of use and my adobe 100 was rusting in all panels. I did contact the State of Maine AG's office and finally received a response from them the day before yesterday. What a disappointment that was. There response was , We have tried contacting Dirigo Manufacturing but have been unable to reach them. The telephone # and the mailing address you provided is no longer valid. Without a means of contacting the business, we are unable to mediate your complaint. Has anyone else had the same response? Very frustrated with the Adobe and the AG.
 
This is so frustrating, even the Maine AG lets him get by with it. He's a crook and they won't try to do anything. I think that we all need to go together and sue him but what can we get except more expense and still boilers that don't work.

I just hope every single Adobe owner contacts their state and ME AG. Eventually , hopefully this scared rat will be cornered. It's obvious he has no conscience and is comfortable stealing from honest hard working people. Yea the standard statement from all AG's--- we're not your lawyer. I'm still awaiting responses from NY & ME AG's. Everyone keep posting and spread the word of Phil's ways.
 
For you all Adobe owners, please forward all info to me on my personal email and I will make some phone call to get this resolved

Please send private messages with Seriel no#s date purchased problems. who contacted ALL of it and I will do my damdest to get thsi taken care of.... I am in Bangor area often and I know the Phils inlaws also. THey are from my area.....

Please let everyone know

Thanks
 
Here's another phone # for everyone 603-329-3241......the office is closed until April 28. Thanks Norman , will be in touch.
 
I think you should all keep in mind that you cannot get blood from a stone.....meaning this dude is unlikely to ever make you whole, because it is easier for him to close up shop, start another shell corporation, etc.

But you can probably prevent him from ripping off other people by making sure he shuts down.

I definately agree with you- see my April 12 post - top of page. Right now anything is worth a shot. I and everyone else have been taken for a ride. Any way I can inconvenience Phil or make him squirm a little , I'll be happy. Everyone must put the word out on this lowlife. Obviously he is still in business taking peoples calls and money, he just won't take calls from former customers. I will be in touch with many people in his area to relay mine and others experiences with Phil.
 
Has anyone in the state of Maine bought an Adobe from Phil ? We could certainly use your help in flushing him out from his hiding place.
 
All Adobe owners please private message me for important info regarding our problems. I will respond this evening- Please spread the word.

Druzzy, please private message me . I have some useful info for you.
 
A s a follow up to one of my previous posts on the Adobe problem I had noted that Mark from SJ Trailor
had promised to send replacement skins for the Adobe. This message confirms he was good to his word,
the new skins have arrived.
 
I have been traveling for some time now and haven't had a chance to scout out Adobe's shop. However, If someone here wanted to contact the nearby Bangor Daily News about investigating this problem, they may take it on. They do consumer complaints so this may be interesting enough for them. That should shake things up. Go to www.bangornews.com for contact info.
 
Has anyone noticed the Adobe website has been down for a couple of days? I guess Phil made enough money to buy another $354,000 house along with all of his other properties.
 
Is Phil gone? Are we all out of options and stuck with these boilers? Anyone had any new thoughts? Live and Learn!
 
No Phil is'nt gone , he's just moved to another neighborhood. I'm sure he's preaching from the pulpit about how he's such a nice guy. No he's just doing what criminals do-- trying to disappear. PM me for more info.
